I'm still not sold on the regular PS5, so I can't imagine buying the Pro. Still happy with my OG PS4 and nothing this gen feels like I'm missing out.

And I thought Anthem set the standard for ultimate game failure.

I just want a PC port that I can play on Steam Deck.

@Elitepatriot Yes, all 3 games are available individually for $10 each

@BendyOtter Thanks! I was also able to figure it out by googling the name of the game, but man the PS Store app is not always very searchable!

What!? I didn't know these games got re-released!
I'm confused though. I went to the PS store and it's only showing me the first game available for $10. Are 2 & 3 only available via Sony's online subscription?

@tangyzesty Same. Elden Ring was a blast but Erdtree has not been fun. I'm waiting for it to be thoroughly balanced before I return to it.

@kendomustdie Unfortunately, I've got an OG PS4, so I'm not sure that performance on a Pro would necessarily help me. Thanks anyway!

@kendomustdie Does the game run at 60fps on PS4? I can't find this confirmation anywhere, and for me it will be the deciding factor on whether I buy on Switch or PS4.

I hope they announce a new Trials game.

It's truly mind-boggling to me that PS5 is selling well. I'm guessing it's almost purely on trust earned from consumers from PS1-PS4. But PS5 has been a travesty of a system. The game output is nothing compared to previous Sony systems. The hardware is incredible but IMO, there still isn't a single must-have exclusive game.

The only thing that would interest me is if it includes local multiplayer. The fact that Fall Guys lacks that is really disappointing.

I beat the game a year ago, but I just returned to it recently to do the Haligtree and Malenia, who I beat last night.
I'm eager for the DLC but also happy to wait.

Imagine if this had a release date for both Silksong and the Elden Ring Erdtree DLC.
It won't happen, but that would make this the greatest State of Play imaginable.

Any hope of Elden Ring DLC being announced?

For my tastes, the destruction looks great but I'm not keen on the building aspect.

Elden Ring DLC would top the list if it were allowed

Even as DLC, Shadow of the Erdtree will be bigger and better than probably every game on this list.

For me, no game came remotely close to the fun I had with Tears of the Kingdom.

@Athrum I've watched a lot of footage of BG3. If you're saying it's not an especially great looking game, I agree. But compared to TotK or Mario Wonder, it looks more "impressive." Spiderman 2 and Resident Evil 4 remake are certainly better looking but they are both too derivative to win GotY.
Seems like the winner has to do something fresh and be graphically impressive, so BG3 seems like the obvious choice based on how these things usually go.

Should be TotK as that game completely sucked me in, in a way that BotW failed to.

I mostly hope it's NOT Baldur's Gate 3, but it probably will because graphics.

I'm hoping Elden Ring drops to $20. I already bought it full price on Steam Deck, but I'd like to also have it on PS4.

I expected to love this game, but found it a bit tedious.

Meanwhile, I expected to absolutely hate The Witness and it ended up being one of my favorite PS4 games and probably my favorite puzzle game ever.

Graphically, it looks incredible! But after spending so much time on Spider-Man 2018 and Miles Morales, I'm burned out on the formula, and this doesn't look to significantly change that.

I appreciate the Majora's Mask reference.

I'm one of the people who actually would be interested in this.

Every time I see that picture, I think it's Death Stranding.

Best trailer music I've heard in quite some time.

@KundaliniRising333 This is not just a result of capitalism. When I was a kid and the internet didn't exist, kids on the playground got sadistic joy out of spoiling movies & video games (for people who didn't want them spoiled). It's a problem with the evil inside of us. But yeah, now they can get paid for it.

I dunno... I'm a big FromSoft fan, but I'm not a big fan of mech games. They usually feel awesome initially and then within an hour I'm feeling bored and like everything is too repetitive. This has been my experience with Armored Core, Zone of the Enders, Omega Boost, etc.

That said, I really hope to be wrong and that this game will be incredible.

Buying a Steam Deck was a bit of an impulsive decision, but it is one that I haven't regretted for a moment. I've gotten so much use out of it just in the last 7 months.

Now we just need Bloodborne and Demon Souls brought to the Deck.

@themightyant "across a swathe of the most-viewed uploads of the trailer, only around 28% of likes or votes were positive."
Sounds pretty clearly like the broad opinion is negative, not just a few vocal haters.

Personally, this and Sonic were the best looking games at the summer games event. I didn't love the music. The artstyle is well done but terribly overused. But the gameplay looks to hold real promise.

I've never played Death Stranding, but watching gameplay of that felt as ridiculous as watching gameplay of this. Except this game feels like a small "intended to be stupid fun" game, whereas Death Stranding felt like someone decided to make a AAA game in the QWOP/Octodad genre.

In any case, this intrigues me.

Since I was a kid, I have looked forward to E3 like it was christmas. I remember looking at floor maps of which companies had what space. Pictures leaked early of decorations going up. So many game announcements. This was such an exciting event, even just from a distance.

Now there is nothing to fill that hole. I mean, Nintendo Directs and Sony Showcases accomplish the game announcements, but it stinks not having one GUARANTEED time of year when every company is pulling out all the stops.

The only thing that could pull me away from Tears of the Kingdom would be Pikmin 4 and Silksong.
The only Sony game I'm interested in is Humanity, but it will have to wait.

Genuine question: Is this one of those games that is really only enjoyable if you get attached to characters and storyline in games?
I'm the type of gamer who skips cutscenes and doesn't read more than necessary. I only care about gameplay, so games like Skyrim hold no appeal, while I do like Dark Souls because the lore can be fully ignored by people like me who just don't care.

Where on the spectrum is The Witcher 3?

This was the best announcement in the entire presentation.

They say 60fps and 1080p, but doesn't that depend entirely on your wifi speed? I can stream my PS4 to my SteamDeck, but the resolution takes a hit regularly because my internet is only 50mpbs.

PS5:For the... players SUCKERS

The games shown don't appeal to me, but that comes down to subjective personal preference. What was objectively disappointing was how they focused on CG trailers that had little or no gameplay.

Sony needs to prioritize getting their games not just on PC, but optimized for Steam Deck. If Elden Ring can run flawlessly, then there is no excuse for The Last of Us.

You need fast internet for this to be viable. I've run PS4 Remote Play to my Steam Deck, and it works well enough but the resolution regularly drops significantly enough that I didn't want to do it beyond testing it out. For reference, I have 50mbps, which is fast for the rural area I live in.

I just want to know what Sony will bring to Steam. Hopefully Bloodborne so I can play it on my Deck.

All I care about is being able to play it on my Steam Deck. Don't care whether it's a remake or just a PC port.

INCOMING: Youtubers speed running the entire game with a toy bow.

I loved the first Teslagrad, so this is a no-brainer for me. I can't speak to this game but I certainly don't think the original had unfair boss fights. They were just fantastic, especially the final boss. It's one of those bosses where it feels impossible at first but after some practice, I can easily beat it every single time.

I wish this review had offered more in way of direct comparison to the original. I think the original Teslagrad, though short, is one of the best Metroidvanias ever (and I've played them all). It's especially great to speedrun.

I would be playing it if it were on PS4.
Currently, this DLC is literally the only game I wish I had a PS5 for, and I'm not buying a new system just for some DLC, no matter how much I like Horizon.

Only thing I'd consider would be a full on handheld PS5, where I can play all the games without needing to own a PS5.
I have zero interest in streaming.

I want Bloodborne and Demons Souls so that my Steam Deck can play all the Soulsborne games.

I don't care if we get the original DS or the remake, as long as it runs well on the Deck. Playing Sekiro, Elden Ring, DS3, etc on there is such a great experience with only minor tweaking.

I have been tempted to try this with my Steam Deck & PS4, but then I'd have to listen to the noise of my PS4.
